Kind, Considerate, but Showing it's Age

Certainly has a fresh coat of paint, and the managers have tried to clean it up to fit the theme (which was super cute btw) but the tub and a few other spots, while I'm sure had been cleaned didn't look like it. That's just the kinda thing that happens with older motels/hotels and I wasn't too bothered by it. I also really appreciated the staff, they were really kind, and there were specific instructions about being kind to the folks who live in the tourist destination in town. Which I found to be very considerate, and I admire greatly.

Retro theme and Retro Annoyance negating the stay

It was was retro theme but there were two blemishes , the Tv didn’t work and there was a whirring noise every 20 minutes , extremely annoying when we kept interrupting our sleep . There was no phone in the room to call the front desk as well as no one there

Cute place with the 50's theme in the room. Just be aware that they allow dogs. We stayed in Room 113 and as soon as we opened the door we were hit with that musky dog smell. Thrn when i put my suitcase on the floor it was immediately coated in long dog hairs. So someone didnt vacuum well. Also they need to shampoo the carpets on occasion so the smell doesnt build up like it did. We like dogs but we dont want to smell dog. We were just there for 1 night so we mentioned it on our check out. The desk clerk ssid they would've gladly changed our room. I have no doubt they would have. The staff are very nice there. There was 1 dog that barked for a least an hour straight too...so if you dont mind dog smells and barking then stay here. I loved the location. They offer a light breakfast but Pig N Pancake is literally steps away so we ate there and the food is great!

Quirky, fun decor, slow internet.

Quirky motel with a fun 50’s feel. The walls were a bit thin, but everyone quieted down by 10 PM. The internet seemed to be also from the 50’s (non-existent at times), and that was frustrating as I needed to get some work done. Great views of the bridge.

Atomic Motel is such a delight it exceeded all expectations (especially after a stay at another motel on the same trip). The so-called mid-century modern is so in-your-face but whiscical. It brings a smile to my face and a big chuckle when I first entered the room. But charm means nothing if the room is not clean or the appliances do not work. Luckily, the room is as clean as the old property can get, and those themed appliances are all in good working order. The motel also uses technology judicially. Because we were late, they sent a text message detailing everything we needed for late checkin without waking up staff. Usually I am less than thrilled to receive text from a commercial establishment. But this one was very considerable both for me and for the staff. Astoria is a small town. Atomic Motel is close to everything, although you still need the bus or a car if you want to visit the town.. The motel is very close to the bridge. The view from the parking lot is pictoristic. If you don't want more than the continental breakfast included in hotel fare, go next door to Pig 'n Pancake, a fun local eatery. Age does take a toll on the property. The shower knobs had a leak when turned on. There was also a strange light incident. We brought these to the attendent during checkout the next morning.

A very unique 50s style property decore that is clean and pleasing. It made for a good stay. Staff was friendly enough. Sits within walking distance of multiple food options, shopping and attractions. They had coffee and a continental breakfast in the AM (time was a bit inconsistent for start) A great price for a good comfy motel.

So I am a caretaker for a friend of mine who at the moment is somewhat disabled. He is a diabetic who got a severe burn on the bottom of his foot. And if you know anyone with diabetes then the foot is the worst place to get any kind of anything. He's hard of walking and so we got him a portable toilet and because we had it in his room when we checked out they decided to literally throw out the beds we were using, and pretty much any thing that i guess we' used or touched. It was low-key embarrassing and made my client feel very "gross. Now everyday that we (then) paid , cash was allowed and so that's how we paid && they didnt, not one time made any b complaints or let us know even after they came and did a stay over they said NADA. ALSO We also had our service dog with us and we let them know the first day that he was what he was and I'm pretty almost certain they waived the pet deposit the first day only and after that they added it onto the bill. Not the EXPEDIA that we paid thru they redid the whole rental paperwork and didn't give the discounts. They're now attempting to charge my card from 300$ all the way down to $50 But I think they should use that pet deposit they WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO CHARGE for for that. They're just very kinda two faced kinda people. Sucks too because those rooms were cute!!!

The property is quite charming and looks great in photos, which led us to believe everything would be fine. However, upon arrival, we were immediately hit with a strong smell of cigarette smoke in the hotel suite. This was especially surprising given how much emphasis was placed on their no-smoking policy when we signed the paperwork. Unfortunately, the smell lingered so much that even our clothes and luggage carried the scent by the time we got home. If you’re in a bind and need a budget-friendly option, this place might do in a pinch. But if you’re traveling for vacation or tourism and looking for comfort and a pleasant stay, I would recommend exploring other accommodations.

The staff were super nice and the location was good for the price. Downside is the room needs repair badly. Walls have lots of uneven paint and have seen the wear of time. That being said, good value.
